She may not have to scream as loud if she used two tin cans connected by a string, but then again the whole objective is to passive-aggressively throw shade on those speaking whom she wants to diss and distract. Or it might be a way of getting some of the committeemen with overgrown thatches of ear hair to catch her subtle signal that the one speaking ain&#39;t one of mine.<br /><br />The best part of the day, according to those present, had nothing to do with slating. Representative Martwick, who has been losing sleep over the prospect of a democratic challenger surfacing after pulling a Manafort on some disclosure forms did not respond well when Leslie Hairston joked that he needed to pay 14 cents in tax for the two bags under his eyes. Martwick angrily threw a bottle of Diet Snapple against the wall. Preckwinkle then insisted he pony up 20 cents, but the room was evenly split on whether stevia made the Diet Snapple a &quot;sugary drink.&quot; Pat Levar, present only for the sausage and peppers, was asked to break the tie. Initially Levar claimed &quot;who puts stevia on a hot fudge sundae&quot; leading onlookers to think he was siding against Preckwinkle, but at that moment a short woman loudly talking on her cell phone placed a meme that has been going around in front of Levar. It is a photoshopped image of Martwick and Levar&#39;s successor, John Arena, riding shirtless together on a horse. Levar looked at the photoshopped meme and still angry about his loss to Arena proclaimed stevia a sugar. Martwick paid the 20 cent sugar tax (for a drink without sugar) to Preckwinkle and 14 cent tax for the bags under his eyes to Finance Chairman Burke. Just as everyone thought things had calmed down, someone yelled &quot;don&#39;t forgot to disclose that 34 cents on your statement of economic interest&quot; and all hell broke lose.<br /><br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
